Description: meta-programming API
 This package provides an API for metaprogramming; that is, allowing code to
 inspect or manipulate parts of its own program structure. Parts of the perl
 interpreter itself can be accessed by means of "meta"-objects provided by
 this package. Methods on these objects allow inspection of details, as well
 as creating new items or removing existing ones.
 .
 The intention of this API is to provide a nicer replacement for existing
 tricks such as no strict 'refs' and using globrefs, and also to be a more
 consistent place to add new abilities, such as more APIs for inspection and
 alteration of internal structures, metaprogramming around the new 'class'
 feature, and other such uses.
 .
 meta should be considered experimental; no API stability guarantees are made
 at this time. Behaviour may be added, altered, or removed in later versions.
